More than a year after the NJ First Amendment case was thrown out of court mid-trial, Judge Barry Sarkisian issued a court order in Hudson Superior Court Friday afternoon Lane Bajardi and Kimberly Cardinal Bajardi must make payments to one of the defendants consisting of 25% of his net income.

The payments of approximately $1815 a month will come from his earnings as a newsreader on the graveyard shift at 1010 WINS radio.

Kim Cardinal Bajardi is an unemployed freelance journalist so the court ordered payments will come solely from Lane Bajardi's earnings to satisfy one of the defendants victimized by their SLAPP-suit.

The Bajardis sought a stay on making any payments to Hudson Superior Court and in an appeal to the NJ Appellate for their frivolous lawsuit against a dozen Hoboken residents.

Both legal maneuvers were denied with the NJ Appellate Court reviewing the appeal last week and quickly deciding in less than 48 hours to deny the motion.

In January, Judge Sarkisian ordered $4,223.75 in funds frozen in the Bajardis TD Bank accounts last December be turned over to another frivolous lawsuit party, counsel Alexander W. Booth on behalf of this MSV editor.
